Yeah, He did get the better end of the deal, an I was ok with that, since I’m just beginning to dip my tow into the building/selling furniture pond. I learned a LOT about what I might need to consider if I ever take my hobby to Pro.

The way I looked at it, He was giving me the expensive wood, all the time I needed to complete (6 month duration), and I got to learn a lot about woodworking process, methodology, safety, finishing, etc. It was like taking a class for a semester and was well worth it.
